Proving once again that old gadgets die hard (some, at least) Sony Japan is introducing fancy new paint jobs for two of its oldest -- and most successful -- products. Come July 3rd, the venerable PS2 will be hitting shelves with a new job, a new outlook on life, and a "red cinnabar" paint job. The refreshed system will run you about ¥16,000 (or around $153). Meanwhile, that metallic blue PSP we've seen is making its way to Japanese gamers on July 17th, sans Madden '09, for ¥23,800 (or $227) for the Value Pack, or ¥29,800 (or $284) for the a decked out bundle including a 1seg tuner, 1GB Memory Stick, and handsome matching carrying case.

 

 Interestingly enough, the PSP is one of Sony's least successful consoles.

Anyway, colours look alright, but because they are images that would most likely have been touched up, I assume they will look like cheap plastic in real life (like the inside of DS's other than white and black).

 Score one for the unimformed.  The PSP is sony's second handheld console and its most successful handheld much like the PS2 is the most successful home console.  Honest mistake though, the pocketstation sucked ass and almost nobody remembers it. Here is a link.
